    I mentioned about CW's twin when she was away from MSE for a while, but then the twin went quiet, so I didn't mention it anymore.

    nothing wrong with them, mine wouldn't scan, they never do, so SA has to input manually, she was just telling me they have had a lot of fraud. But I knew that as all the coupon deposits on SS tills were covered over and you had to call SA who was checking each coupon and if you had bought the item. And I live in such a nice respectable area.....:rotfl:


    hmmm mine scanned perfecto! where did you get your pdf? will email you my pdf later. I don't print both coupons out, I only print what I wanna buy if I am going to get persil, I just highlight the half page of the moc to print.

    Yep a couple of the desserts say they can be heated in the ramekins (the souffles and the melting chocolate puds) so presumably they are oven safe? Would think that they are using the same ramekins for all the puddings as they look the same on packaging?

    ETA: on gu site they say they cannot be reheated after initial reheating, of said pud, which may just be to cover their back if they do crack at a later stage, ah well, will still make good cold dessert dishes

    yes, and probably if it has something in there, that when reheated, causes you to become ill.

    I am using both coupons as persil £2 in asda.

    And getting through a lot of it at mo!

    from the same site as everyone else. but it's ok, as long as it gets accepted I don't care! :D and as the woman said to me if it was fake, it would flag up.

    must admit i had to look twice yesterday
    not like CW to need a telling off i thought :rotfl:

    i'm wondering how deliberate that name choice was if you get my drift
    strange how they are posting again now our beloved CW is back.
    perhaps they are hoping there posts will be missed

    but their out of luck

    QUOTE=Aesop;50631459]Coupon Woman is causing problems on coupon thread, poor CW wondered why I was talking about her, when I was talking about Coupon Woman.

    Also Coupon Woman is asking her stores if they will accept extra coupons even if she hasn't bought the products.... guess what everyone will be trying? Let's wait to see how long before we get banned from using coupons altogether or the SA start checking EVERY ITEM against each coupon.

    Already had this in Asda using the comfort pure and aeriel coupon. the SA told me it was due to abuse of coupons, people copying the coupon and it not scanning, and they accepting it, and losing money.[/QUOTE]

    I thought the coupons looked a bit shady and could have been photocopied if you just print the side bits with the barcodes so what I did with the persil/comfort was print out a full sheet in high quality colour and then the side bits printed out as many as needed on OHs b&w laser printer-then if the SAs looked concerned about these I would unfold the full sheet and show them and explain the whole story about how this is a PDF from an online baby magazine put out there by unilever. It prevented any problems but then a SA took my colour sheet the other day in case she gets asked any qs presumably :mad:

    :rotfl::rotfl:Sending via email is much more cheaper:D:D

    omg! if I sent an email card..... the rows it would cause! plus I have to send her free £10 token from maximiles, 2 fingers to her that she says she has no money, cannot afford to send me money for my birthday or DH, but can afford 2 holidays a year! and 2 new dresses for her nephew's wedding!
  • On the plus side that particular two comfort pure the coupon double scanned on both, so I got them for 50p each (for 42 washes) :D
